Just another dog

When you get hurt enough in life, you have some difficulties diving into situations that would offer the possibility of hurting you again. Every animal does it. Thats why we have control over dogs, cats, monkeys, hamsters... not fishes though...they have a memory that lasts some seconds. So if we were fish, we would be happier, then our memories wouldn´t come in the way when we see some resemblance in a situation.If one gets to a point where the fear of getting into trouble, usually one backs out. This applies to all your day-to-day situations. When taken moderately, no harm done. But imagine when taken up a notch... Like lets say your love life... That can be a problem. Many times its your sub conscience who does it, and you just say: " i dont understand why, but i cant be with her/him", or "i dont know why, but i cant compromise with that girl/boy"... So you deny your needs and feelings..Many people live like this, they do try though, but everytime, that residual memory gets in the way... Reflexes.....
